Monica Avalos, LPC

Monica Avalos is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Texas. She brings seven years of experience supporting people who face stress, anxiety, grief, depression, and challenges related to parenting and life transitions. Monica emphasizes a collaborative, respectful style and meets people where they are in their story.

She works from the belief that each person is the expert on their own life and already has strengths to draw on. Sessions focus on practical steps and real skills to manage overwhelming emotions and daily pressures. Monica uses mindful awareness and clear strategies to help people make steady changes.

Monica draws on approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Client-Centered Therapy. That mix lets her match techniques to a person’s goals, whether the need is relief from anxiety or tools to cope with loss. She prioritizes short, doable practices that fit into busy days.

People often come for help with self-esteem, career stress, ADHD, and relationship patterns tied to attachment or abandonment. Monica also works with issues like chronic illness, fertility stress, immigration-related concerns, and midlife questioning. Her aim is to help clients build clearer direction and more manageable routines.

She offers sessions in English and practices in Texas. Getting started begins with a simple intake and scheduling step. Monica supports people as they try new ways of responding to hard situations and track what helps over time.

Approaches you can use in online sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them. It helps people clarify what matters most and take small steps toward those values. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect and teaches concrete skills to shift unhelpful patterns. Mindfulness Therapy trains simple attention practices to reduce reactivity and increase presence in daily life.

Finding the right approach is part of therapy. Monica works with clients to choose methods that match their goals, values, and daily routines. She treats the process as a collaboration and adjusts strategies as progress and needs change.

Confirm current session options before booking to know which formats are available. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, cut travel time, and allow short check-ins when that helps. It can also make it simpler to practice skills in the places where stress actually happens. If you want to use online sessions, check the listed session options and schedule a time that fits your routine.
